THURSDAY Follow up shave to yesterday's initial use of this Wade & Butcher Wedge. Last night I finished the razor on @cubancigar2000 Lou's Suehiro Gokumyo 20k. Yesterday's shave was close but a bit harsh. This morning's shave was considerably smoother. Three pass BBS shave with no harshness. Have a great Thursday, all! 40 laps on the Suehiro Gokumyo (SG20k) led to a very smooth, comfortable result.
SOTD: Thursday, January 21 Col. Conk Bay Rum (Bad rap...loads well; lathers thickly; nice Bay Rum scent) No-Name Floppy/Scritchy Badger Brush '56 B4 Gillette Super Speed Polsilver SI (2) Captain's Choice Bay Rum AS Have a great day!
I agree! I used a puck when still shaving with cartridges. The scent was terrific and I thought it lathered well, provided good cushioning and slickness, and the post shave feel was nice as well. Glad to hear I'm not the only one with those opinions!
Col. Conk is abhorred by a lot of "soap snobs" Me, my son gave it to me for a birthday present---along with the SOTD scritchy, badger brush, so I enjoy using this set up. Best method that I have found is to rub that darn puck on your beard; palm load; smear it all over your face again and you're good to go for three passes.
SOTD Dr. John's Gold Label Omega Boar Stahly GSB (1) Alum Pinaud Lime Sec Great two pass BBS. Have a great day!
